Owned by Hammerson, The Rock comprises 620,000 sq ft of retail and leisure space and is anchored by Marks & Spencer and Debenhams stores.

The 60-store scheme is 65% let by units and 84% let by area. Project director Carolyn Kenney said it would be “over 90% let by Christmas” and that Hammerson was “delighted” at the take-up.
